- This time on Bona Fide Bus we visit Zion for the first time. If you are looking to avoid crowds and can sacrifice a little bit of comfort, winter is the best time to visit. We tackle Angels Landing, one of the most notorious and thrilling hikes in the US. We hope you enjoy the amazing beauty of Zion and encourage you to go if you haven't yet.

OMG! Best adventure yet! You guys are incredible! I loved loved your video!! Like you Sara, I would have stayed back too, even though I SO would have wanted to go. Thanks Eric, I got to see it all without losing my life😎.
So glad you liked it!!
What a beautiful view.
Wiiiiild
My knees were shaking just watching, LOL! Beautiful though!
Lol I felt the same glen!
Awesome share can't wait to do Angels Landing
Thank you! Yes it was a huge thrill
Beautiful! Thank you!
No thank YOU! 😊😊
I really enjoy your videos. Now that I am in my "advanced" years I have difficulties with heights and rough terrain. I can enjoy places like Zion vicariously through videos like yours! Thanks.
Wow that was fast & early , love it !! Great video as always !!
Lol thanks Scotty!!
Um, no thank you! I'm happy to have lived it vicariously through you.😉
Lol I can’t positively say it’s something I’d want to do again.
🤢🤮 I was nervous! I would do it, but it would take me forever! 🤙 Great video! Great adventure!
Hahaha just like me! Thank you 🥰😊
So beautiful!! I love these types of videos. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! These are our favorites to make ♥️
Great video. You two are amazing. Thank you for sharing your adventures
Thank you for watching and commenting! We really appreciate it 😊
Kathy and I really enjoyed this video!!!
Love hearing that!!
Scenery is amazing, just brilliant landscapes. Stay safe.
Will do! Yes it was unlike anything we’ve seen
Absolutely beautiful but there's no way I could do it with the snow and ice, I'm too much of a chicken haha - Eddie
Hahaha yeah it was not for the faint of heart that’s for sure!
Beautiful! My heart is literally still pumping fast. 😬 So glad you’re both down! Looks like an incredible experience!❤️
I’m glad we’re both down too 😂😂😘😘
Wow you two! Definitely beautiful there and very high up that forsure made it look scary but Epic. We are so glad you guys made it there when it was not as crowded. Thanks for sharing another cool and beautiful video! Love you guys!
We were blown away that there weren’t more people this time of year… it was awesome!
That’s badass guys!!! We’re trying to hike it before April 1st so it was great to get some perspective on the conditions
You’re gonna love it!
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing this. 💕 We've never been to Zion and had not thought of going in the winter to avoid crowds but it looked perfect. Except I'm so afraid of heights that I probably wouldn't have made it anywhere near even your first stop. We went to the Grand Canyon and when I heard about condor sightings I tried to psych myself up to do even a very short and wide path near the top of the gorge and ended up laying down flat against the rock wall shaking in terror while Troy took the camera and went down around the corner. So many hikers came up looking happy and felt so incredibly bad for me. 😕
Glad you made it as far as you did and got to see some breathtaking scenery.
-Troy & Aimee
Not going to lie it was a struggle for me (Sarah) and while I’m glad I did it I will not be doing it again!! Lol. Even though I opted out of the angels landing section I’m glad I did because knowing myself it would have been a train wreck 😂 scout lookout was plenty. There are other way more chill options in Zion too. We also did the scenic highway and that was great because you drive up and then walk a chill path a mile and have similar views.
Greetings from Romania! Very nice landscape! Congratulations for editing and images! I subscribed so I can more easily see what you're posting. Have a nice day!
Thank you so much! Cheers!
Well congratulations on making it to the top some of those aerial shots looking over the side of that mountain even scared me I don’t know how far I could’ve made it up there I gave you guys a lot of credit and it was so beautiful I can imagine what it looks like in person
Thank you for watching! It was definitely scary. We watched one girl slip right in front of us (not too close to the edge) and we grabbed her backpack. Ugh that was the scariest part for me. It was worth the climb and heights but I don’t need to do it again 😂
@@bonafideoutside Thank God you were able to grab her backpack yeah I would think once would be enough at least for me it would be too congratulations
THAT was sick!! Very impressed by your courage, both of you. It's a dangerous hike in the best of weather. Reminded me of the Knife's edge on mount Katahdin although smaller scale but just as sketchy with snow and ice.
Thank you!!! It definitely got the adrenaline pumping. The crash afterwards was like going to a concert. Haven’t heard of that one! Maybe we will have to try!
What a beautiful and adventurous trail to hike, thank you very much for sharing and inspiring. Zion is definitely on my list now. Take care out there. Best wishes, Mario
Thanks for watching! You should definitely make the trip! 😊
I did Uluru/Ayers Rock long time ago. That's not possible anymore. So I can imagine that this clime was also difficult to do. I have it marked on google maps for the next USA trip.
That’s cool! Why isn’t it possible anymore? Yes definitely mark it down. The narrows are in the same park. Another amazing hike to add, but I would only do these in the off season because otherwise it is way too busy
@@bonafideoutside For the original people (Aboriginals) the rock is spiritual it’s like a church. They don't want people to clime it anymore. But it’s also beautiful to walk around. So I’ll be back one day…. Lots of travel plans as you can see.
OMG just the camera shots gave me a stomach ache! Beautiful though!
Agreed! 😂
